Weir, a junior majoring in business administration and a forward for FAU’s men’s hockey club, speaks about his life and how he got into the sport of hockey coming from a country where it wasn’t as popular.
Matias Weir was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, a country that’s not known for being a hockey-playing country. His family moved to the United States when he was four years old.
Weir still visits Argentina as often as possible, as he spoke about how the cultures differ between Argentina and the United States.
